Flavour - Chop Life Lyrics
Lyrics
Owe be di ihi fu
Ijele
Aya yin a puo
Bia oga paulo mu a choro cheque cha cha cha
Biko we putam the cash upfront before m take e fa personal
Okwu ba na ego m ne take ya very personal
Chop life o
Celebrate life o
Wunba nu life o
Thank God we they alive o
It is a beautiful day to remember
We are making progress together
My guy it is a beautiful day to remember
We are not here forever
Ye
Celebrate me now that am living
Not when I die you go throw party
This life is for the living everyday na jolly jolly
Onye din du gba first nu
Ezege nwu ba nmanya
Oyi kwe kwe je wo je wa nma nma
Chop life o
Celebrate life o
Wunba nu life o
Thank God we they alive o
Owe be di ihi fu
Nna ka yin peli pe kndu
??we no they rush we take am gentle
Na ayin na burn money ka burn candle
You see my side you can see from my angle
Ezege no they panic ka na puchialu ife
nmuye matches link e up with uchelu men e mebe magic
?? bia maka balling is a habit
Awuso life , life a na ga no be traffic
Onye ibiri be ya biri make you no bother me
Anything wey go stress me make e they over me
I they pray I they fast blessings all over me
Ndi ko bu mu na pu mu now they want to follow me
Make I tell you as e they go (as e they go)
My life a di a gbacha o le wuu ko bu gold
Ti isi na pitch gba shot is a goal
Ka nmirin a di Na so the boy go they flow
Ahchinu ga di cold
Chop life o
Celebrate life o
Wunba nu life o
Thank God we they alive o
Celebrate me now that am living
Not when I die you go throw party
This life is for the living everyday na jolly jolly
Onye din du gba first nu
Ezege nwu ba nmanya
Oyi kwe kwe je wo je wa nma nma
Chop life o
Celebrate life o
Wunba nu life o
Thank God we they alive o

Meaning & Inspiration
"Chop Life" by Flavour, featuring Phyno, released on August 29, 2020, is a vibrant anthem that urges listeners to embrace and celebrate life, a message deeply resonant with biblical teachings on gratitude and living in the present. While not explicitly a gospel song, its core sentiment of cherishing existence and acknowledging God's blessings aligns beautifully with scripture. The song's narrative emphasizes the transient nature of life, prompting us to seize the day and find joy in our current circumstances, much like the Psalmist declares in Psalm 118:24, "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." The repeated refrain, "Chop life o, Celebrate life o, Wunba nu life o, Thank God we they alive o," serves as a powerful affirmation, echoing the gratitude expressed in 1 Thessalonians 5:18: "give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." Flavour and Phyno's lyrics, particularly the sentiment "Celebrate me now that am living, Not when I die you go throw party," speak to the importance of appreciating loved ones while they are still with us, a poignant reminder found in Proverbs 27:10, "Do not forsake your friend and the friend of your father, but do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your disaster. Better a neighbor near than a brother far away." The song’s infectious energy and call to savor life’s moments underscore the biblical wisdom of not worrying about tomorrow, as Jesus himself taught in Matthew 6:34, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." The artists encourage a mindset of abundance and confidence, suggesting that with faith and hard work, blessings will follow, akin to the promise in Malachi 3:10 of God opening the heavens and showering down blessings. Ultimately, "Chop Life" is a spirited declaration of life's preciousness and a call to live with gratitude and joy, finding fulfillment in the present gift of existence, a sentiment that can inspire anyone to live more fully and thankfully.
